Seattle beckons. Now, if I were a real fan of MLS, I would suggest that the league would be best served by the drama that would come from Yedlin signing with Portland. Every league needs a few pantomime villians to really spice up the rivalries.
Makes little sense to spend DP money on a RB. If the Bund interest in legit he should strongly consider going there. 2nd highest paying league on average. Could probably get a nice 1-1.5M/YR contract.

DeAndre Yedlin update, per source:-Likely headed for Newcastle exit after talk with club-No new contract talks (deal expires in 1 yr)-MLS "at the top of his list" but unlikely to happen right now due to fee/contract (he'd have to be a DP)-Informal talks w/ MLS clubs#USMNT— Tom Bogert (@tombogert) August 3, 2020 News on Yedlin. Looks like an exit this summer
This is surprising, given his recent comments on life in the US as a black man in the wake of the killings of George Floyd, Breonna Taylor, etc, etc. Plus I feel like a European lifestyle suits him. More money, more fashion, more lifestyle.
Would be cool if he wound up at Schalke. His market Value is around $8 Million? Jonjoe Kenny loan ended. Would like to see Yedlin become a leader in a prestigious rebuilding squad of a top-leauge. If he signed a deal through 2023, that would set him good playing regularly into a potential 2022 World Cup. Comeback to MLS at in 2023 at 30.
MLS at the Top of his list from the player who said his family was glad he wasnt in the USA right now!?!
I don't know what his family would prefer, but things change you know? And I don't know why you're bringing up Lithuania when his ancestry is Latvian. I guess it's irrelevant though because in both countries it was German occupiers committing the atrocities.
You have some gumption to be commenting on anything regarding DeAndre Yedlin's identity, but this particular comment really does take the cake. You really should stop while you're ahead. Are you seriously questioning his Blackness? Who are you?
I’m gonna take a shot at getting this thread back on track. and let me bring back some wisdom of the ancients - don’t feed the trolls - they die when we ignore them. 👀Hearing that USMNT defender DeAndre Yedlin may be an interested spectator of today's EFL Playoff Final between Fulham & Brentford. 1 of the 2 clubs has expressed an early interest as he may be on the move from Newcastle come season's send...— Roger Gonzalez (@RGonzalezCBS) August 4, 2020
Where did I question his blackness? I'm questioning that his family prefers Europe. Yes, that's irrelevant. This is Latvia. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Holocaust_in_Latvia No, not just German occupiers, locals as well. Europe has a long story of racism and antisemitism. No way his grandparents don't know that.
Not banned. DeAndre is half Black. Did you not know this? You talk about more than just the Jewish side when you mention his family. But all of this is beside the point of asking why on earth you are going down this inane hole about something you clearly have no idea about.
